While the current trend in Europe appears to be censoring social media content, the Czech Republic is considering the opposite.
Czech MPs have passed the first reading of a legal amendment that would criminalise social media firms if they ban content that is deemed to be in the public interest.
It s being seen as an attempt by the Czech right-wing to fight back against the so-called cancel culture seen elsewhere in Europe.
The motion was brought forward to the lower house of parliament by Vaclav Klaus Jr, the son of a former prime minister and founder of the small right-wing Trikolora party, as well by MPs from various other political parties.
